I wrote this in an email to family and friends on July 3, 2007, two days after we brought Llewelyn home:
"He's a real sweetie: very calm and gentle, a bit timid and sensitive, especially in new situations, but also curious, playful and affectionate. The car trip home went surprisingly well, Llewelyn slept pretty much the whole way and seemed to feel quite at ease lounging on the back seat with me while Henry drove. In fact so far a lot of the milestones that we thought might be challenging have actually really gone well: he seems to be pretty much housebroken already, in any case we have't had any accidents yet, and we gave him a bath last night and he was so good and stood perfectly still as we lathered him up and then hosed him down. He devours his food even though it's different from what he used to eat, and is catching on to some commands already like "sit" and "come". But even with such a good puppy it's still quite a lifestyle change for us!"
